Benefits
Initial Consultation
Within 48 hours after filling out our online form, we promptly reach out to schedule the consultation at a time convenient for you. Our team gathers essential information about your property such as deck dimensions and layout, design preferences, existing landscaping and access points that may impact the deck installation process.
Design and Planning
Our team of deck installers utilize advanced 3D rendering technology to provide a realistic visualization of the proposed design. This technology enables us to make adjustments and modifications to the design, ensuring that every aspect meets your needs and lifestyle requirements. We will discuss your desired project timeline based on seasonal considerations and any upcoming events or gatherings.
Material Selection
After the project approval, we present you with a diverse range of premium decking materials, including Trex composite decking. Some of the types of deck materials we have are Trex Transcend Lineage, Trex Transcend, Trex Select, and Trex Enhance. Each of these materials undergoes a rigorous selection process to align with your desired aesthetic, budget and maintenance preferences.
Site Preparation
We start excavating the area below the frost line to prevent frost heave and compact the soil to ensure a firm and level surface. Depending on the site's soil composition and drainage requirements, we may also install a layer of gravel or crushed stone to promote proper water drainage away from the deck structure. After this, our team laid down concrete footings or piers to support the weight of the deck and distribute it evenly.
Expert Installation
Our craftsmen utilize a variety of specialized tools and equipment to ensure precision and efficiency throughout the process. Tools such as power drills, saws, and pneumatic nail guns are used to cut and fasten decking materials with accuracy and speed. Laser levels and transit levels are employed to ensure proper alignment and elevation, guaranteeing a level surface and uniform appearance. Moreover, we utilize specialized deck building tools such as joist hangers, deck screws, and hidden fastening systems to securely attach the deck components and ensure structural integrity.
Finishing Touches
It’s time to add the final touches. This includes installing high-quality railings to provide security and define the deck's perimeter, as well as constructing stairs for easy access to and from your outdoor space. We also incorporate accessories such as lighting fixtures, built-in seating, and decorative elements to personalize your deck and create a welcoming atmosphere.
Advantages of Trex Decking for Pool Surrounds
Trex decking is a premium composite decking material crafted from a blend of recycled wood fibers and plastic. As partners with Trex, Warner's Decking recognizes the numerous benefits that Trex decking brings to pool surrounds. Here are its top 3 benefits for pool areas:
Resistance to Moisture: Trex decking's resistance to moisture stems from its composite composition, which combines recycled wood fibers and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plastic. This unique blend creates a non-porous surface that repels water, preventing moisture from penetrating the decking material. Thus, makes Trex decking around pool impermeable to warping, cracking, or splintering even in environments with constant exposure to water like poolside.
Low Maintenance: Periodic cleaning with soap and water is all that's required to keep Trex decking looking its best. Trex decking only needs to be cleaned semi-annually or as needed, depending on the level of exposure to dirt, debris, and environmental factors. This minimal maintenance requirement makes Trex decking a convenient and hassle-free choice for homeowners seeking to spend less time on upkeep and more time enjoying their pool.
Fade and Stain Resistance: Trex deck comes with an advanced composite composition which includes a protective polymer shell. This shell acts as a barrier, shielding the decking material from UV rays and preventing color fading caused by prolonged exposure to sunlight. In addition, the non-porous surface of Trex decking resists stains from common pool chemicals such as food spills and other substances that can damage its color and appearance.

Why Decks Reign Supreme for Pool Surrounds?
Homeowners often face various challenges when it comes to their pool surrounds, ranging from maintenance issues to safety concerns. Traditional concrete or tiled pool surrounds can become slippery when wet, posing a risk of slips and falls for both swimmers and guests. In addition, these surfaces may crack or develop uneven areas over time, requiring costly repairs and detracting from the aesthetic appeal of the pool area.
Choosing a deck for pool surrounds, on the other hand, offers practical solutions to these common homeowner problems. Decking materials such as Trex composite decking provide a non-slip surface that enhances safety, even when wet, reducing the risk of accidents. Furthermore, decks are highly customizable in classic tones like gray, brown, and tan, as well as more modern options such as slate, charcoal, and driftwood.
With regular care, including cleaning and periodic inspections, decks can last upwards of 25 to 30 years. Book a consultation with one of our pool deck experts today to get you accurate measurements and a detailed cost breakdown.

Warner’s Decking Textured Pool Deck Options
The area around a pool is prone to becoming wet, which can create slippery conditions and increase the risk of accidents. Textured deck materials offer enhanced grip underfoot, providing traction even when wet. This reduces the likelihood of slips and falls, making pool areas safer for swimmers and guests.
Wood Grain Texture: Wood grain texture features intricate patterns that mimic the grain and texture of real wood. Its authentic appearance makes it an excellent choice for homeowners seeking the charm of traditional wood decking without maintenance concerns. In addition, the wood grain texture adds traction to the deck surface which enhances safety and reduces the risk of slips and falls, making it ideal for pool surrounds.
Embossed Texture: Embossed texture adds depth and dimension by using raised patterns or designs that are pressed into the decking material during manufacturing. Its tactile quality makes it particularly suitable for pool surrounds as it provides added traction underfoot, reducing the risk of slipping on wet surfaces.
Brushed Texture: Brushed texture offers a subtle and sophisticated look to pool surrounds, featuring a lightly textured surface with soft, brushed lines or grooves. This texture is achieved by brushing the decking material with a wire brush, creating a smooth yet slightly roughened surface that adds visual interest and dimension. The brushed texture also masks minor imperfections and scratches, maintaining the deck's appearance over time, even in high-traffic areas like pool decks.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best size for a deck by pool?
A minimum width of 6 to 8 feet is suggested to accommodate chairs and tables comfortably. While the length can vary based on the size of the pool and desired seating arrangements. However, the best size for a deck by a pool largely depends on the available space, intended usage, and personal preferences.
How deep should a pool deck be?
The depth of a pool deck typically ranges from around 4 to 6 inches above the waterline of the pool. Having the deck surface level with or slightly above the pool coping helps to prevent water from spilling onto the deck and facilitates easy access to the pool.
But keep in mind specific depth requirements may vary based on local building codes, pool design, and personal preferences. Consulting with a professional from Warner’s Decking is recommended to ensure the optimal depth for your swimming pool deck.
What is a good size pool for a backyard?
A pool size of around 12 feet by 24 feet is considered a good starting point for a backyard pool. This offers enough room for swimming and recreation while still fitting comfortably in most backyard settings. However, larger properties may accommodate larger pools, such as 16 feet by 32 feet or even larger, providing more space for swimming laps or entertaining guests.
Does concrete pool deck get hot?
Concrete pool decks can indeed become hot as their thermal conductivity causes them to absorb heat from the sun, especially during peak hours. Instead, we highly recommend Trex composite decking for its inherent resistance to heat. Unlike concrete, Trex composite decking is engineered to resist heat absorption, making it cooler to the touch even on hot days. Its composition of recycled wood fibers and polyethylene allows it to maintain a comfortable temperature for lounging and walking barefoot.
